Chapter 303 Sophie's eyes dimmed slightly.
Adler covered his eyes. This scene was too much.
Jenna watched Sophie nervously, waiting for her reaction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtColby spotted Sophie from across the crowd instantly, his expression unchanged. Vanessa, standing beside him, followed his gaze and set her eyes on Sophie.
She quickly sensed Colby's interest in Sophie and frowned, asking, "Colby, who is she?" "Somebody you shouldn't ask about," Colby replied coldly.
Then, he smoothly withdrew his hand from Vanessa's grip.
Vanessa stared at her now-empty hand, stunned.
Colby walked towards Sophie, but Sophie avoided his gaze and headed in the opposite direction.
Jenna failed to stop Sophie and confronted Colby instead, "Colby! You need to explain, what's going on with you and Vanessa, and you..." Before Jenna could finish, Colby held her back and made his way towards Sophie.
"Colby!" Jenna was furious, and Adler tried to calm her down, "Let's not meddle in their business." Jenna glared at Adler, “Sophie is the only sister-in-law I approve of. If you mess this up, I'll knock your heads off." Adler chose silence. Arguing seemed very dangerous right now.
"Sophie!" Colby reached out, pulling Sophie aside to a secluded corner. He watched her, his eyes filled with amusement, "Is this reaction because you're jealous?" "Why am I jealous?" "If you're not jealous, why did you run?" Sophie calmly pulled her hand back from Colby's grip and said indifferently, "You misunderstood. I couldn't care less about you and Vanessa. It's just that Adler asked Tricia to keepin the dark about the Costello family's gala, and I was curious." "Just curious?" "I've seen enough now." Sophie glanced at Vanessa, mingling in the crowd, and said, "Ms. Vanessa and you make a great pair. I wish you both a lifetof happiness." With that, Sophie turned to leave.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmColby grabbed her arm and leaned in to kiss her deeply.
Sophie was startled and instinctively tried to push him away, but Colby's strength was overwhelming, as if he intended to meld her into him.
After a moment, when Sophie calmed down, Colby released her, "Can you listen to my explanation now?" His voice was deep. When Sophie turned her head away, Colby continued, "There's nothing between her and me. I didn't know she was coming back." Sophie's face flushed red, but she still pushed Colby away, "I don't want to hear your explanation?"
In the crowd, Vanessa was hurriedly looking for Colby. She spotted him and Sophie in the corner, and quickly approached, asking. "Colby, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you. Everyone's waiting for your speech." Vanessa moved next to Colby, her gaze landing on Sophie, "You must be Mrs. Burke, I've heard so much about you. Hello, I'm Vanessa." Vanessa extended her hand to Sophie.
Sophie then took a good look at Vanessa. She had a refined appearance, a classic debutante look that made her appear effortlessly graceful.
